AN ACT making appropriations for the support of government
AID TO LOCALITIES BUDGET
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. a) The several amounts specified in this chapter for aid to
localities, or so much thereof as shall be sufficient to accomplish the
purposes designated by the appropriations, are hereby appropriated and
authorized to be paid as hereinafter provided, to the respective public
officers and for the several purposes specified.
b) Where applicable, appropriations made by this chapter for expendi-
tures from federal grants for aid to localities may be
allocated for spending from federal grants for any grant period begin-
ning, during, or prior to, the state fiscal year beginning on April 1,
2020 except as otherwise noted.
c) The several amounts named herein, or so much thereof as shall be
sufficient to accomplish the purpose designated, being the undisbursed
and/or unexpended balances of the prior year's appropriations, are here-
by reappropriated from the same funds and made available for the same
purposes as the prior year's appropriations, unless herein amended, for
the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2020. Certain reappropriations in
this chapter are shown using abbreviated text, with three leader dots
(an ellipsis) followed by three spaces (... ) used to indicate where
existing law that is being continued is not shown. However, unless a
EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
[ ] is old law to be omitted.
LBD12653-03-0
2 12653-03-0
change is clearly indicated by the use of brackets [ ] for deletions and
underscores for additions, the purposes, amounts, funding source and all
other aspects pertinent to each item of appropriation shall be as last
appropriated.
For the purpose of complying with the state finance law, the year,
chapter and section of the last act reappropriating a former original
appropriation or any part thereof is, unless otherwise indicated, chap-
ter 53, section 1, of the laws of 2019.
d) No moneys appropriated by this chapter shall be available for
payment until a certificate of approval has been issued by the director
of the budget, who shall file such certificate with the department of
audit and control, the chairperson of the senate finance committee and
the chairperson of the assembly ways and means committee.
e) Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, if the finan-
cial plan required under sections twenty-two or twenty-three of the
state finance law estimates that the general fund is reasonably antic-
ipated to end the fiscal year with an imbalance of $500,000,000 or more,
the director of the division of the budget shall prepare a plan that
shall be submitted to the legislature, which shall identify the general
fund and state special revenue fund appropriations contained herein and
related disbursements that may be reduced to eliminate the imbalance
identified in the general fund, provided, however, that the total
reduction in disbursements identified in such plan shall not exceed an
amount equal to 1.0 percent of estimated disbursements in total state
operating funds for fiscal year 2020-2021. The legislature shall have 30
days after such submission to either prepare its own plan, which may be
adopted by concurrent resolution passed by both houses and implemented
by the division of the budget, or if after 30 days the legislature fails
to adopt its own plan, the reductions to the general fund and state
special revenue fund appropriations contained herein and related
disbursements identified in the division of the budget plan will go into
effect automatically. To the extent the state is obligated to make
payment to any individual or entity pursuant to any appropriation
contained herein to which an adjustment or reduction is applied in
accordance with this section, such obligation shall be reduced commensu-
rate with any adjustments or reductions made by the director of the
budget and/or by the legislature. The following types of appropriations
shall be exempt from reduction in any plan prepared by the budget direc-
tor and/or any plan adopted by the legislature: (a) public assistance
payments for families and individuals and payments for eligible aged,
blind and disabled persons related to supplemental social security; (b)
any reductions that would violate federal law; (c) payments of debt
service and related expenses for which the state is constitutionally
obligated to pay debt service or is contractually obligated to pay debt
service, subject to an appropriation, including where the state has a
contingent contractual obligation; and (d) payments the state is obli-
gated to make pursuant to court orders or judgments.
f) Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, for purposes
of any appropriation made by this chapter which authorizes spending in
an amount net of refunds, rebates, reimbursements, credits, repayments,
and/or disallowances, "refunds" shall mean funds received to the state
resulting from the overpayment of monies, "rebates" shall mean funds
received to the state resulting from a return of a full or partial
amount previously paid, as for goods or services, serving as a
reduction, discount or rebate to the original payment amount,
"reimbursements" shall mean funds received to the state as repayment in
3 12653-03-0
an equivalent amount for goods or services, including but not limited to
personal service costs, incurred by the state in the first instance
being provided to a third party for their benefit and partially or in
full financed by such third party, "credit" shall mean monies made
available to the state that reduce the amount owed to a third party,
including but not limited to billing errors, rebates, and prior overpay-
ments, "repayment" shall mean the return of monies as pay back for
expenses incurred, and "disallowance" shall mean monies made available
to the state that were not allowed or accepted officially by the
intended recipient, based on a determination the payment is not accepta-
ble and/or valid. When the office of the state comptroller receives any
such refunds, rebates, reimbursements, credits, repayments, and/or
disallowances, he or she shall credit the refunded, rebated, reimbursed,
credited, repaid, and disallowed amount back to the original appropri-
ation and reduce expenditures in the year which such credit is received
regardless of the timing of the initial expenditure.
g) Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, if the
state or any agency thereof incurs any costs associated with administer-
ing the rent regulation program in accordance with subdivision (c) of
section 8 of chapter 576 of the laws of 1974, as amended, for a city
having a population of one million or more, the director of the budget
may direct any other state agency or agencies making payments to such
city, or any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, to perma-
nently reduce the amount of any other payment or payments owed to such
city or any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof pursuant to
any appropriation set forth in this chapter. Provided however, that such
reduction shall be in an amount equal to the costs incurred by the state
or agency thereof in accordance with subdivision (c) of section 8 of
chapter 576 of the laws of 1974 and provided further that such direction
shall be made in writing by the director of the budget. If the director
of the budget makes such direction pursuant to the authority set forth
herein, the impacted city shall not make the payments required by subdi-
vision (c) of section 8 of chapter 576 of the laws of 1974, as amended,
and the division of housing and community renewal shall notify such city
in writing of what payment or payments will be reduced and the amount of
such reduction. To the extent a city of one million or more or any
department, agency, or instrumentality thereof is entitled to any cash
disbursement authorized by any appropriation contained in this chapter,
such entitlement shall be reduced commensurate with reductions in
payments made in accordance with this part.
h) Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, upon enact-
ment of this chapter of the laws of 2020 containing the aid to locali-
ties budget bill for the state fiscal year 2020-2021, all appropriations
and reappropriations contained in chapter 53 of the laws of 2019, which
would otherwise lapse by operation of law on March 31, 2021 are hereby
repealed.
i) The appropriations contained in this chapter shall be available for
the fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2020 except as otherwise noted.

that the funds were properly expended, the commissioner shall certi-
fy the amount of the approved expenditures to the state comptroller
